Will Muschamp was the defensive coordinator for LSU in its national championship season three years ago.

Muschamp, who was a member of former Tigers coach Nick Saban's staff for four years, is now the defensive coordinator at Auburn.

LSU coach Les Miles and center Brett Helms had different opinions regarding the effect Muschamp will have upon Saturday's game since he was coaching the Tigers defense as recently as two seasons ago.

"I don't think Muschamp will provide an edge for either side," Miles said. "I respect the work coach Muschamp did here and the work he's doing at Auburn. But, this is a different time with different players."
